Paper Clay gift tag

I'm stepping outside my box today and made a gift tag out of Creative Paper Clay! It was fun and easy to work with too. I was pleasently surprised at how well it accepted the ink too when I stamped my Susan K. Weckesser stamp, from the Garden What Not Collection. After that was done, all I need to add were some ribbons from The Ribbon Resource and a few little rhinestones.

I made a very short video of the process for the Paper Clay creation of the tag, hope you enjoy it and try making one too.

Love this!!! I have to admit I wasn't sure we could post paper clay items but now that I know we can.......I made something back in October with it. I too love that you show videos with your posts (wish I knew how to do that LOL)

Making paper lanterns from handmade paper is an easy way to add a beautiful ambience to any gathering. Handmade paper has a gorgeous texture. Light shining through it is magical. As I made my first sheets of paper using the Arnold Grummer complete paper making kit I thought how lovely the pieces would be to display at my art show in April. I will give them away to people who attend my opening event. So let me show you how I made them.

Looks
like summer is really here with temperatures around 90* and rising. Just
thinking about a day at the shore brings a smile to my face. Even though I
don’t like to actually swim in the ocean, I do love hearing the waves, wading
in the surf and sitting under a palm tree in the shade. Follow along to create
this fun card!
